Wicked Season (2024)

[bunniefuu]

Oh god I just...

I... I just miss you so much.

[thunder rumbles in sky]

[police siren wails in distance]

[steady electronic pulses]

[rhythmic electronic

dance music]

Beth, are you really going home?

Yeah, I'm out.

Oh boo!

[muffled heavy breathing]

If you move, you die.

Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa.

I was just joking.

- [Werewolf] Just kidding,

just kidding. - What the

hell is wrong with you?

It's not real. It's not real.

Way to go, Charlie, give a girl

a heart attack why don't you?

Yeah that seals it for me.

Beth, he didn't

mean to scare you.

I'm sorry, guys, I'm

done for the night.

Come on, Red.

It was a joke!

[girl friend] Beth!

First and Monroe.

Bet you're having

a crazy night, huh?

[eerie, old-timey violin music]

Excuse me, what

way are you taking?

Sir?

I think you're

going the wrong way.

[ominous boom]

- [Beth] What are you doing?

Where are you going?

Pull over the car.

[Beth] Hey, as*h*le!

Pull over!

I want to get out of the car!

Stop!

Stop the f*cking car!

Oh what the f*ck?!

Oh my God!

No! No! No!

Someone help!

Help me!

No!

Please!

[terrified screams]

Help me!

Leave!

No!

[panic breaths]

Go away no!

No please!

[terrified scream]

[choking on her blood]

I run by here every day.

And I have never

seen anything weird.

But, I mean, this is so sick.

You won't see this stuff

in the horror movies.

[Jogger] There was no one here.

[Jogger] It was just the body

when I got here.

I was really hoping Turner was

wrong with his copycat theory.

Crucifixion. Disembowelment.

Ten year anniversary

of the scarecrow killings.

I'd say he was dead on.

[female voice] Hey, Christine!

You might want

to come take a look at this.

[Vega] Yeah, that's a good bit.

[Miller] The victim's?

No, I don't think so.

My guess?

[female detective]

Someone leaving the scene.

Maybe we'll catch a break.

[male voice] A break

soon would be nice.

Oh, God.

Please tell me

you got something.

Blood.

Looks like a passive trail.

[Vega] Leads away. I...

I don't think it's the victims.

Maybe the suspect's.

Yeah or another victim.

Jesus, how do you

crucify and disembowel

four women

in a crowded city

and not a single witness?

[Vega] I mean,

how's that possible?

sh*t, we don't even

know who this one is!

We checked with dispatch again.

No active missing persons

or want-to-locates.

Crime scene went

completely unseen

until a jogger found

her this morning.

Techs figured

[Vega] yesterday

evening on this.

Did you go talk to

Sergeant Hughes?

No luck.

No answering machine.

Tried him a few times actually.

A few times?

Just not enough time in the day.

[Captain Turner] You

got to make the time.

We are way behind here.

Alright, I'll tell you what.

[Captain Turner] Finish up here.

[Captain Turner]

Catch your breath.

Clear your heads.

Then try again.

Think you can reach

out to ol' Manhunt for us?

[Miller] Let him

know we're coming?

Yeah I'll pin him down.

Do you think he can help?

[Captain Turner] He's

the one that caught

the as*h*le that

started this M.O.

Maybe he can see

something we missed.

Hello?

Sergeant Hughes?

[Hughes] Yeah.

Come on in.

Work... You piece of sh*t!

Um Sergeant we are...

Vega and Miller.

Yes sir that's right.

We were hoping to talk

to you Sarge about the

scarecrow killings.

[foreboding music]

Turner was hoping you could

take a look at what we have.

[Vega] Maybe give us

a different perspective.

Looks to be the same M.O.

[Hughes] I talked to Will

and we both agreed

it's a copycat.

And that you're going

to have a long Halloween night.

Well that's why we're here.

We don't have one solid lead.

We were hoping you

could give us your take on it

as an insider.

Well there lies your problem.

You got a pen?

You see everything that wasn't

public knowledge

Your guy is missing.

What is that?

Symbol.

It was on all the crosses.

[Hughes] Definitive clues.

But your guy?

I don't see anything

that matches Crow.

Alton

[Hughes] Crow.

[Hughes] We uh

Got him as he was driving

off from the last crime scene.

[Hughes] Pulled right

over and surrendered

Never said a word.

Just...

stared.

[Hughes] Smiled.

Covered in her blood.

- [rushing horror

music crescendos]

[cellphone rings]

Yes hello captain.

[inaudible dialogue]

Northwest just took

a report on a missing female.

[Vega] Not seen since

a costume party last night.

Might have gotten in a cab.

Uniforms are on it.

Like I said...

busy night.

[Vega] So that's it?

What else do you want from me?

Please come with us.

Look

I know where you're

at with this.

[Hughes] I really do.

[Hughes] I've been there...

too many times.

And that is exactly

why I can't

[Hughes] give you anything more.

[Hughes] You want

to learn about Crow?

Take a drive out to the asylum

where they sent him

where he died.

Maybe learn something

from his stay.

Sure you don't want to shake

the rust off and go with?

I mean you got to at least be

curious about what's going on.

No I'm good.

[sighs]

That was sad.

"Manhunt" Mike Hughes.

I guess it's just

another dead end.

[scoffs]

Before you judge him too quickly

he lost his daughter

while chasing after Crow.

Maybe half of who he was

or what he was went with her.

I didn't know.

I couldn't imagine losing Mark.

They asked for volunteers

at the department

when Hughes couldn't

be with her.

I signed up for one

of my days off each week.

What you knew her?

Why didn't you bring it up?

You know I was in the academy

when my dad was going through

his struggle with cancer.

I couldn't be with him

as much as I wanted to.

Did Hughes know?

I doubt it.

Besides I didn't do it for him.

I did it for her.

Ain't gonna bite.

[Hughes] I'm not so sure.

[Rodney] Two high speed low

drag homicide detectives

coming in to what?

Seek for wisdom?

They were here for the coffee.

[laughs]

That's bullshit.

Yeah how so?

Because your coffee sucks bro.

Then why are you here Rodney?

That's simple.

I got horrible taste.

What's it been, Mike?

[Rodney] You've known

me 15 years, right?

Give or take.

So then you know that I

know why those two were here.

Really?

I never knew you

vice guys to be so bright.

Hmm yeah.

Ouch.

On that note I got to go.

You know there's a reason

why you were the best we had.

[somber music]

[rallying music]

Alright.

[ominous music]

So this is where they

locked up Crow huh?

Yeah I guess so.

Excuse me.

Sir!

Hello?

- Can I help you?

- [Vega] Yeah.

[Vega] You work here?

Last I checked.

Name's Frank.

Groundskeeper.

I'm Detective Vega.

This is Detective Miller.

We're investigating

a lead on a m*rder case.

Looking for records

on an Alton Crow.

[Miller] Lucky

for us, you were here.

Yeah.

Lucky.

Only make it out here

a couple of times a week.

Crow you said?

Yes. We understand

the building is closed

but uh we've been told that

there may be records here still.

Any chance you could

show us around?

Police?

Don't see why not.

Domus mea domus tua

As my granddad used to say.

Gratias tibi

We won't be long.

I'm going to check

in real quick.

Oh that thing won't work here.

Dead zone.

He's right.

No bars.

[Miller] We can

call it in after.

So just you three?

[truck door swings open]

Glad you're here.

[Vega] They just found

the missing girl.

She's number five.

Well let's get to it.

[Frank] Some of the worst

K*llers in the country

passed through here.

Not sure about your guy.

[Frank] Originally built in 1900

as a general hospital.

Then in 1917

started housing the

criminally insane.

[Frank] Michelangelo

painted that in 1487

when he was 12.

[Frank] But the guy

in the center with the beard

[Frank] that's who

this place is named after

Saint Anthony.

Story was

[Frank] He was a monk and a

healer with an unshakable faith.

So they sent demons

to corrupt him

[Frank] Break him.

[Vega] Did he?

[Frank] Huh?

Break?

I don't think so.

Follow me.

Good for you Padre.

[Frank] Shut down ten years ago

after a whole floor of people

[Frank] dropped dead overnight.

Some kind of gas leak.

[Frank] So they condemned

the building and

moved everybody out.

[Miller] Hey there's

somebody here.

Oh druggies and homeless

come through here all the time.

Hey as*h*le!

[Miller] Police!

Actually it's the kids who come

[Frank] And sacrifice

their neighbor's pets

that leave a nasty mess.

Really? Why don't they

just flatten the place?

[Frank] They're

working on it but

it's all tied up in court.

[ominous music]

[Frank] Here's the storage room.

They used it for the files.

Oh come on.

This is our best lead right?

Someone's going to need to

[Hughes] check out

Crow's old cell.

[Vega] I'm on it.

[Vega] Frank?

Do you think

you can find Crow's old cell?

Yeah.

Alright let's go.

So uh

Where to start?

[Frank] So who is that guy?

[Vega] He's a sergeant.

[Frank] Seems pretty intense.

[Vega] Yeah well, he's

old school you know

It's how they built them.

What's going on over there?

Hold on.

Hold back for a second.

So that report you did on Crow.

Those women were

part of some sort of

ritual sacrifice?

[Hughes] Yeah.

I was sure he believed

that's what he was doing.

To what end?

[Hughes] I never got an answer.

My God.

What is all this?

Who did all this?

[Hughes] Crow's uh

spree was pretty wide.

First two murders

weren't even in the city limits.

And that third case?

Third case was mine.

[Miller] But Crow

[Miller] Crucifixion

Disembowelment

No blunt force trauma.

No drugs in the system.

That's right.

You read my notes.

The little details that were

never released to the public.

Well we were always

two steps behind him.

We were scrambling trying to

learn everything we could abot

[Hughes] witchcraft, voodoo

[Hughes] all that weird sh*t

that the evidence

was telling us.

This has to be his cell, right?

What is that?

Italian?

No.

It's Latin.

Can you read it?

What's it say?

[Hughes] Then Slick

Simms started drawing

and he's the one

who came up with the uh

unfinished pentagram.

Marking the fifth location.

Yeah.

Ol' Rodney never fails to

remind me of that either.

And that grates on you.

Here let me show you.

Yeah let's take a look at it.

Come on.

Move some of these

boxes out of the way for me.

Et veni

[Vega] In bivio

[Vega] Itineris.

[loud rumble of thunder]

[Vega echoed] Et veni

[Vega echoed] In bivio...

(Vega echoed) Itineris.

[evil ghost-like sounds]

And I came

to a crossroad in my journey.

[Hughes] Okay so

our first two

were

[Hughes] here

and

[Hughes] here.

Next was...

here

and on down here

for number four...

here.

You see the distance wasn't

meant to throw us off the scent.

And when we finally caught him.

[Hughes] There.

[Vega] Trans frectum

[Vega] Nocte educ

[Vega] Mortuis.

[loud impact]

[glass shatters]

And bring the dead

across the river

[Vega] at night.

[Heavy footstep

and chains rattle]

And the fifth victim?

College kid.

Roommate said she got

a call to go study.

That was it.

Like I said

Crow surrendered and

never said a word.

Motivated genius

with an evil mind.

Powerful thing.

[evil ghost-like sounds]

Ad terram

[Hughes] Did you get

that fifth location?

Yeah um...

24th and Euclid.

24th.

Right there.

Huh.

How about the others?

Sheffield and Crosby.

Monroe and Carroll.

You got to be kidding me.

The other two are

spot on as well.

[Miller] Copycat or not

He knew the spots

and where he wanted to work.

Well that sure as hell

ain't no accident.

Something else?

Hmm?

Vitae.

That puts us dead center.

To the land of the living.

[loud crack of thunder]

[blaring jail cell alarms]

Great.

Now what?

[heavy foosteps]

[chains rattle]

[low scary whisper] Michael...

[low scary whisper] Michael.

[distant female laughter]

Did you hear that?

Huh what?

I swear I just heard something.

Hughes.

That's written in blood.

[Miller] Thoughts?

It's a mass grave in Ireland.

In English, it means

The Mound of the Hostages.

Maybe the animal

sacrifices have started.

Well it is Halloween.

Did you see that?

No, what do you got?

Someone...

[distant female laughter]

Well now I certainly heard that.

[ghostly voices behind them]

Unbelievable.

Tell me you have a key on that

chain that works this lock.

Oh actually I do.

Wait.

Did you hear that?

What?

- [man running] -Wait!

f*ck!

Let me get that key, Frank.

Right.

[Miller] It could be one

of those drugged up kids.

[Hughes] Oh one of them

partygoers you mean.

[Miller] Yeah.

[distant strange laughter]

[crash]

Sounds like the

kegger has started.

Come on.

We don't have time for this.

We need to get back over to...

Look, I agree

But we gotta make

sure some kid's not

whacked out of his skull.

Alright.

Son of a b*tch!

Get out of here!

[Hughes] Hey!

[shivering grunts]

You all right?

[Hughes] I'm talking to you.

Frank, the key.

I'm trying.

I have all the cellblock keys.

[Frank] They all look alike.

You hear me?

I said are you all right?

[man screams in pain]

[chains rattle]

Now stop it!

Are you all right?

Just lovely!

[hysterical laugh]

Hughes!

Miller!

He's armed with a razor!

[man chokes in pain]

Come on play!

[Vega] Oh no-no-no-no!

What the?

Come on.

Come on!

[hysterical laughter]

- [hysterical laugh]

- [Hughes] Yeah, alright.

[sinister laugh]

No-no

Frank the key.

[Frank] I'm looking!

How about the

f*cking key, Frank?

[Vega] Frank, the key.

We need the key.

The key Frank!

- [large man] You'll play.

Get the key Frank!

- I can't find it!

- [large man laughs]

[Vega] Find the

f*cking key Frank!

Give me those!

You don't want to play with me?

What the f*ck?

[Hughes] It's a dead end!

[rushing steps]

[Hughes] Oh sh*t!

The bars!

Hurry Frank now!

Pull!

Keep pulling!

PULL!

[Razor freak] Where

are you going baby?

PULL!

Don't struggle!

[Vega] Pull tighter!

I am!

If I only had my razor

[Hughes chokes]

We could really have

a bonding moment!

You mean this one?

It's a

It's a scalp!

He's wearing a woman's scalp!

No signal.

Just like you said.

That was quick thinking.

Thanks.

You alright?

Think I'm going to

feel that for a while.

Jesus.

It's not what I meant.

Are you...

Are you all right?

Oh, that.

30 years of smoking.

Found out they put

warning labels on the

packs for a reason.

Then we have this guy.

I don't know much

about g*ns and b*ll*ts

but they didn't seem

to do much to him.

I hit him.

You know I know I hit him.

Doesn't make sense.

- [Vega] Let's go find the

others yea? - Sounds good.

I'm going to grab the keys.

[Miller] God.

Still can't believe

I k*lled a man like that.

Hey, you did what

you did with what you had.

Yeah but that's the thing.

I don't even

remember doing that.

And that's not who I am.

I had my weapon.

[Miller] Um, yea.

I don't know how

to tell you this

but there are no entry

wounds on this guy.

What?

Yeah.

[Hughes] You're trying

to tell me I missed this

guy inside of three feet?

I mean he's done for.

That's all that matters.

I hit him in the hip.

That magnum round should

have destroyed that joint.

Whacked out clown.

Sliced you wide open.

You missed.

What do you expect?

That nut job. Got the jump

on me twice in two minutes.

What are you thinking?

I got a couple of thoughts

a couple of thoughts indeed.

Let's go find Vega first.

Yeah.

That is one big man.

Vega took care of business.

Used his own jewelry on him.

Where'd they get to?

What is that... Latin?

Yep.

But don't ask.

My latin is terrible.

He died here.

I mean right on this spot.

He wanted to die here.

He placed victims

for his pentagram.

Right?

And then had you catch him.

Putting him right

where he wanted to be.

Here.

Son of a b*tch.

He knew with his

past mental history

[Hughes] that

they'd ship him here

until they decided whether or

not he was fit to stand trial.

He died in a gas leak along with

everyone else in the floor but

But why?

I mean was it to

cover up the death

or make it look accidental or?

Nah He could have hung himself.

Nobody would've given two shits.

Hey.

[metallic clink]

No he's clean.

[Miller] No wounds no blood.

[Miller] Just like that freak

upstairs with the razor.

There's gotta be some

sort of explanation for this.

You sure you're

gonna make it, Frank?

I'm okay.

Just give me a sec.

[evil deep voice chuckles]

Frank you hear that?

[evil deep voice] Frank

It's dripping water.

The place is 100 years old.

[Frank] It leaks.

So this hunch of yours?

Yeah.

What about it?

[Miller] Would it have

anything to do with the guy

who just attacked us or

the uh humming

- [man humming a melody]

I'm hearing right now.

[dripping water]

It stinks too.

[Vega] Any idea where

it's coming from?

I don't know.

Somewhere in the building?

Alright old man

I'll give you that.

[Frank] It's just

water, detective.

[Frank] A leaky pipe.

It's just so loud.

[evil deep voice]

Do it now, Frank.

[humming grows louder]

- [loud crash] -[Miller screams]

[Hughes] Miller!

[evil deep voice] Do it now.

[evil deep voice] Do it, Frank.

[evil deep voice] k*ll her.

Miller.

Miller!

[Diego Alma] That was actually

meant for you.

It's weird.

Don't even move.

Ten years I've been

working for this.

Ten years!

Ten years for what?

To bring him back.

Bring who back?

[male voice] Just

as quick Michael.

[male voice] However I'm afraid

[male voice] not as deadly.

[man hums melody]

Thanks old friend.

Crow's been gone for too long.

[Frank] But tonight he returns.

[Frank] Thanks to me.

And I get my reward.

I can see that you're puzzled.

[male voice] How rude of me.

[male voice] I'm sure

you have questions.

Please.

Go ahead.

Michael, I so very much want

to enjoy our time here together.

So I must insist.

Who the hell are you?

(man chuckles)

Isn't that obvious?

[male voice] Say it.

Say my name.

Diego Alma is dead.

And yet

here I am.

Lucky for me

you came in with the save.

I was going to get

those stoners to read that wall.

What kind of piece

of sh*t are you?

You think you're better than me?

In the end you

It doesn't matter.

So now what, Michael?

[Diego Alma] Should

I tell you something

[Diego Alma] only I would know?

How about...

Lana Meyers?

[Diego Alma] Just

come on in, detective.

It's over!

Drop the sword!

No you lower the weapon.

[Diego Alma] Lana... I

did love her.

So proud of you detective.

[Lana crying in fear]

But her heart belongs to me.

[Hughes] Son of a b*tch!

[Diego Alma] When I learned what

it meant to be...

[Diego Alma] released.

You gave me a gift that night.

Goodbye Detective Vega.

[Frank] Oh sh*t.

sh*t.

Jesus!

[animal-like roar]

[witch-like laughter]

Here is my gift to you.

Samhain is nearly over...

but it's work will be complete.

Whose work?

The f*ck?

[painful grunt]

[witchy cackle]

See in life...

we each loved death

and provided plenty

of torturous souls.

[Diego Alma chuckles]

Seriously?

[Diego Alma] I didn't sh**t

any of my victims did I?

Now, listen to me

very carefully.

It's a do unto others situation.

[painful shout]

I'm ready for you now b*tch!

Now.

[Diego Alma] It

wouldn't be the same...

[Diego Alma]

...without a decision.

[loud stab through

flesh and bone]

b*tch!

[rallying music]

[Vega] All right Frank.

It's my turn.

I don't want anything from you.

And I'm not playing

this sick f*cking game.

[Diego Alma] Ah

Detective Miller.

[loud stab into flesh and bone]

No!

[Loud stab]

[grunts in pain]

[Diego Alma] You know life

[Diego Alma] is but

a series of choices.

What do you do?

[Diego Alma] Do you hold

your daughter's hand

as she lays dying in a hospital?

[loud thud]

Oh sh*t man.

I see why you got out.

What can I do?

[Miller] Nothing.

I can't feel anything

from my chest down.

Do me a favor.

Yeah.

Pull out the sword.

Are you sure?

I'm not getting off this floor.

Alright.

Yeah man I'm here.

Finish this...

- [Hughes] I will.

- For Mark.

Kenny!

[Hughes] Kenny!

[panicked breathing]

How is this... How

is this possible?

[male voice] Come on!

Oh, great.

The records room.

[Vega gasps]

Can this night get

any f*cking weirder?

[creepy music grows louder]

I'm just losing my f*cking mind.

No big deal.

Tick Tock

Tick Tock!

[angry male voice] Open 'em!

[angry male voice]

Open 'em!

[angry male voice] Come on!

Open 'em!

[angry male voice]

Yeah, come on! Get up!

Frank?

[Frank muffled] I was just

walking and then he jumped me.

Woo wee!

Billy the Barb was having

a good night tonight.

But this?

This here is something special.

Look at the man himself

Mr. Detective Man.

Oh, hell.

Hell?

You wanna know about Hell?

I said do you wanna

know about Hell?

[Frank muffled] You really

don't have to do this.

[Frank muffled] You

don't have to do this.

Who dis?

- My name is... - [Billy]

I didn't f*cking ask you.

He's just a groundskeeper.

Well, I'd say that he's

keeping the wrong grounds

on the wrong night.

Ain't that right,

Mr. Groundskeeper?

Wouldn't you say?

My name is Billy Lee Barber.

I do rapings.

Oh, and killings too.

Thirteen, to be exact.

[Billy] I thought

you should know.

[Billy] Because we're gonna

have a party here tonight.

- You mean to... - Used to

get on with it all the time.

Until this one here shipped

me off. Ain't that right?

Yeah something like that.

[Billy] Let me tell

you what I remember.

You shipped me back

off to Florida.

Back to that swamp.

I bet he had a good

laugh with that one.

Knowing damn good and well those

girls had family

locked up in there.

- That wasn't my decision.

- [Billy] Oh bullshit!

Who then?

The great citizens of Florida.

No matter.

Please.

[Billy] You volunteering

to go first?

Do unto others.

[Frank] Please.

You don't have to do this.

I kind of like your

p*ssy a*s attitude.

It makes me want to

save you for last.

[Billy] That way I can

show you how it's done.

[Billy laughs]

You think somethings funny?

Maybe you're trying

to go to the front of the lin.

[Hughes] Do all your kin ramble

on like this?

Or just you with

your twisted mind?

Go ahead.

Make your jokes.

Because I'm going to pull

the flesh of your f*cking fa.

What's that Frank?

Your anger makes

you sloppy Billy.

Can you feel the wire?

[Hughes] I sure hope you can

[Hughes] because on your last

breath, I want you to know...

[Hughes] because on your

last breath I want you to know

I'm going to saw

your f*cking head off with it!

Give me your hands.

Frank!

Give me your hands!

I'll get you out of this!

That...

was barbaric.

Yeah well it seems to

be the night for it.

[Hughes] Now what

the hell happened?

[Hughes] Where's Vega?

I was just walking

and this psycho jumped me.

Frank where is Vega?

I tried to save her.

I really tried.

She didn't make it.

But we can.

So let's get the

hell out of here.

Miller?

Hughes?

Of course they're not here.

There's the exit.

Come on!

[Frank] What is it?

It's not finished.

[Vega] Frank Lassiter

f*cking snake.

I mean we came here

tonight to get some

information out of a file

and ended up in a

f*cking nightmare.

Well what do you want to do?

- See it through.

- [Vega] March 3rd

[Vega] Alton Crow

transferred to D-Block

solitary confinement

after suspicious

circumstances surrounding

death of cell block inmates.

I want you to get to a phone.

You dial 911.

You have them transfer you

to homicide Captain Turner.

You tell him to bring his a*s

out here and bring the cavalry.

[Vega] Alton Crow proves to

be incredibly persuasive

and manipulative.

[Vega] Some staff

have taken leave.

Frank Lassiter now

acting as full time

maintenance for D-Block.

If Crow is a part of this

it might as well

be me who ends it.

I want to help.

I can't ask you to do that.

You're not asking I want to.

[Frank] And I know just

where to find some answers.

[Vega] October 27th.

Frank Lassiter caught

bringing contraband

into D Block.

Gave no answers

after many hours

of questioning.

[Vega] Reassigned

to facilities maintenance

Morgue was this way.

Power stayed on down here

but it's a little spotty.

I'd offer you a light, but...

I only got the one.

I know what you mean.

[Vega] November 1st.

[Vega] The entirety of D-Blook

discovered dead.

Inmates on lower floors

report hearing

noises and voices.

Coming to the end Sergeant.

[Vega] Alton Crow

counted among the dead.

Markings scrawled

on the walls of his room.

Patient case record closed.

[metal door unlocked]

Is that your man?

Nope.

I'd say it's one

of your homeless.

Looks like the rats got to him.

[Vega] Didn't take them long.

So where's this lead to?

Eventually the boiler

room and furnace.

This is as far as you're going

to go, isn't it...

Mr. Lassiter?

Oh you're good.

You know I never

did catch your name.

Sergeant.

Hughes.

Yeah... that Hughes.

Okay so how'd you figure it?

I got a quick

glimpse of your file earlier.

As for Crow

Biggest thing to ever

come out of this place

And you didn't hear of him?

Oh you should have

left Sergeant.

But Crow will be

glad you didn't.

So he's here.

Well good.

[Hughes] Good.

Not just yet... but soon

when the incarnation

is complete.

Well that explains

the sacrifices this week.

Their lives to give me life.

My master's promise to me.

My prize for helping the plan.

And let me guess

This little soiree

started with a gas leak?

You know that was not easy.

Timing.

[Frank] Crow needed

to die that night.

Those other guys

f*ck them.

[Frank] Collateral damage.

And I'd call you crazy

but what I've seen tonight?

When my master rises I'm sure

he'll explain all of that.

You are really nothing

more than a groveling lackey.

No!

I'll get to live forever!

Once you uh finish

the ritual right?

Yes.

Oh good so it's not done.

Down this way right?

Oh and hey before you lock

me in. If I were you...

Save it Sergeant!

You're expendable.

Motherfu...

[painful shout]

g*dd*mn it!

Hey Frank!

[Hughes] Something much larger

has been gnawing on this body!

And if it's anything

like those others...

Whatever Sergeant!

This night is so

much bigger than you!

Tell me Frank.

How are you in the

hundred yard dash?

as*h*le!

[loud bangs all around him]

Listen to me!

Whoever you are.

Whatever you are!

I have important business...

with someone...

Who can tear you to shreds...

in the blink of an eye!

So if you know

what's good for you

You will let...

me...

PASS!

I think that worked.

[Frank screams in terror]

sh*t-sh*t-sh*t-sh*t-sh*t-sh*t

[pounding on door]

I need a weapon.

[Frank coughs]

[Vega] You should

really do something

about that cough Frank.

f*ck.

Detective Vega.

You're still alive. Frank.

[Vega] Oh Frank.

I've been stabbed

twice with ice picks.

It's been a long night

for both of us dear.

But my master watches

over me, protects me.

[Frank] So I'm going

to k*ll you now.

[Frank] I'm going to beat

your brains to a bloody pulp!

[Frank] You shot me!

You dropped my g*n Frank.

You see this little lever?

It has to be like this

in order for it to go...

No-no-no-no-no!

Don't sh**t!

Don't sh**t me!

Big talker when you

got the upper hand huh

but you're just a

conniving little b*tch!

If you k*ll me now

you won't find him in time!

Find who?

[pounding and scratching

on metal door]

[rallying music builds]

[metal door unlocks]

Why I thought that

would work this time.

[monster growling in shadows]

[monster growls louder]

[Hughes] Oh sh*t!

[knife plunging into flesh]

Where are they?

They're dead!

You lying sack of sh*t!

Admit it detective.

Wouldn't you bargain

with the devil

for even one more day?

[distant diabolical laughter]

Sarge.

Ah finally some good news.

What the hell happened here?

Oh this?

It was... it's uh

Look it's just

been a crazy night.

Yeah.

Where's Miller?

[somber music]

[Vega] Sarge.

I'm sorry.

He...

no.

What?

- No! - [Hughes]

Hey-hey-hey-hey.

[Hughes] We need to finish this.

Now you're with me right?

Did you uh

see Frank?

Yeah I saw him. We had a nice

talk outside and then I...

blew his f*cking brains out.

Let's take a look at this.

[Hughes] I found these.

Can you help me out with it?

Oh Jesus Christ what did you do?

Ah jeez.

[Vega] Almost

Hang tight.

[Hughes] Hey.

Hey, you two were right.

I just didn't want

to face it anymore.

[Hughes] I just wanted

to put it all behind me.

I guess maybe I'm just one of

those kind of guys it follows.

How could you have possibly

planned for any of this sh*t?

I mean seriously?

You know we met

once before right?

Huh really?

Yeah the Lake Park case.

[he laughs]

[Hughes] The garbage truck.

Yeah he got uh he got

wrapped around the rear axle.

I guess that's why they

teach you to look both ways.

And he shouldn't have run.

That outcome sure

wasn't planned but...

f*cking saved lives that day.

[Hughes] Aww

Garbage truck did all the

did all the work.

You know earlier

in Crow's cell I...

There was this writing.

I started to read it

out loud and I think it's

I think it's me that brought

- those things.

- Just don't.

How could you have ever known?

Frank.

I mean do you think

it's my fault that Kenny's dead?

Look Frank is

bringing Crow back.

And these others?

There's no way

they were part of his plan.

How do we k*ll Crow huh?

Cause I shot that

thing multiple times.

It did nothing.

Do unto others.

What?

Earlier...

I had to k*ll one

that I shot dead years ago.

And I don't know why.

And I don't know how.

But he told me

they can only be k*lled

by the way that they

k*ll their victims.

So Crow has to be disemboweled.

That's why earlier with

that guy he was strangling

a man in front of us.

We literally had to use

his own chain on

him to k*ll him.

Right.

You want to do the honors?

You bet I f*cking do.

Well then let's get to it.

Looks like Frank's workshop.

[eerie demonic whispers]

You hear that sh*t?

Sounds like uh

[bones cracking

and gasps of air]

Crow?

[demon voice] Crow

[demon voice] No Crow

Who are you then?

[guttural growl]

Sine...

Nomine.

Vega?

Basically

Without Name.

We are vast.

Far more than you

could ever fathom.

We

Will disfigure this world.

[Sine Nomine] Life will suffer

in our embrace.

We'll rot

all!

Do you understand now child?

Yeah.

You uh set this in motion

about ten years ago right?

And Crow

Well he's still

deader than dead.

And then you get this other

as*h*le to dial in your numbe.

That sound about right?

By my design.

Michael.

Tick Tock

Except for one thing.

Yeah.

You didn't count on us.

[hysterical laughter]

Get up!

It seems that you've

misplaced your toy child.

Would you like it back?

Sarge it didn't work.

Another try perhaps?

Now children...

We shall begin.

So noble.

So pure of heart.

[Sine Nomine] Join us!

[Sine Nomine] Be family

within our kingdom.

[Sine Nomine] You were correct

about Alton Crow.

As for his sl*ve well

[Sine Nomine] Even

vermin such as he

[Sine Nomine] may hold value.

Let me show you

what treasures await you child.

I was there ten years ago.

[Sine Nomine] You

were chosen Michael.

[Sine Nomine] Christine.

Know that there is still time.

Where are you Christine?

I so need you now

[Sine Nomine] Always so driven

So focused.

Never enough hours in the day.

You forgot about me.

Why didn't you love me?

Where are you, daddy?

[Hughes daughter] I'm so scared

without you.

That Michael is

what you shall have.

[Sine Nomine] A second chance

to be by her side.

[Sine Nomine] I sent

these demons tonight

[Sine Nomine] but

they all failed

[Sine Nomine] as

they have before.

To corrupt him.

[Frank] Break him.

[Sine Nomine] Kneel to me.

[Sine Nomine] And

she will live again.

Don't listen to him daddy.

[young girl] I know

you didn't forget me.

You did what you had to do.

You have to believe that.

But Crow.

Disembowelment.

[Miller] Crucifixion.

Crucified.

Yeah!

Christine!

[Vega's father] The pain.

[Vega's father] My

beautiful daughter...

The nail!

[Hughes] That's right scream!

[speaking in Latin]

[Sine Nomine] You

will not defeat me.

[Hughes] You're right.

But that frail form?

All day long.

[Hughes] Vega!

Now!

The axe!

[meaty stab into flesh]

What now?

We burn it.

I don't want to be here anymore.

Can you promise me one thing?

Sarge?

Huh?

Can we get Kenny home first?

Yeah.

Let's go call this in.

One thing about police funerals.

There's something special.

They are that.

Give me a minute yeah?

Sure yeah.

How many you suppose

this has been for us?

I don't know

It's always one too many.

You gave your statement yet?

No.

There's alot of crazy a*s

rumors about what happened.

You plan on saying?

The truth.

They don't like it.

That's on them.

Straight down razors edge.

Manhunt.

For what it's worth, I'm glad it

was you in there with those two.

I don't think anybody

would have made it out.

Bring ya a*s.

Let's go get a drink.

You know

that sounds pretty good.

Guess you got a visit to make.

Take your time.

We'll catch up alright.

Thanks man.

Sarge I feel like we haven't

had a moment to talk about

what happened with Crow.

Just hear me out

for a second okay?

What he showed me

was a twisted lie.

My father was my hero.

I wouldn't be who I am today

if it weren't for him.

It seems that thing

and Crow had

something in common.

Yeah.

He tried to manipulate

my relationship with my father.

Couldn't be further

away from the truth.

My father and I...

f*ck...

My father and I had

an unbreakable bond.

You know?

I guess I just

needed to say that out loud.

It's a special thing, innit?

Between a father and a daughter.

Yeah.

Sergeant Hughes, Detective Vega

may I speak with you?

I got this Sarge.

We need to discuss

what you've encountered.

It is of the utmost importance.

It's probably not the best time.

You need to give

your statements.

We have to debrief you.

- Who are you? - That's

not important right now.

Okay listen it's

been a long couple of days.

Alright.

I'm done here.

Sine Nomine.

What did you just say?

All I've thought

All I dream

All I need

[brushing leaves off stone]

[All I've thought ]

Hiya kiddo.

Happy birthday.

So...

So much to say but I...

I want to

Daddy wants to thank you for

the help the other night.

I think you got me back

to where I needed to be.

I really do.

You are going to talk to us

about Frank Lassiter

and the body of Alton Crow.

We burnt the body lady.

It's over.

No it isn't.

No you let the genie

out of the bottle.

But you did not put it back in.

God I just

I just miss you so much.

So much.

Daddy loves you.

You know that, right?

[thunder rumbles in sky]

[police siren wails in distance]

We need access now

to Lassiter and all the othe.

Time is a factor.

This could be the end.

The end of what?

The end of everything.

[Hughes] Well then...

Let's get to it.

It worked.

Well there's no problem

if you had a g*n

sh**t him in the...
